What was the relationship then? In a New Hope, it’s known that Anakin was Vader, right? And they knew Luke was Anakin’s his son. Obi wan mentions Anakin being corrupted by Vader. And the fight at the end, Vader now the master, etc. Was it r

The activity in this context isn’t just that you are reading, it’s that you have to interpret what is written into scenes in your imagination. This is also required when listening to books or podcasts. This is partly why they show much of t

It doesn’t seem that hard. Just calculate the number of end users served by transmission lines and divide the costs accordingly. Don’t even need to factor in risk. This would make denser areas less costly on a per home basis, which is exact

My understanding of the tiers of support is based on the level of commitment from the community. That is, if the FreeBSD folks wanted to make it a Tier 1 target, they can, “If running the testsuite requires additional infrastructure (such a

My issue with this line of argument is that it’s anthropomorphizing machines. It’s fine to compare how humans do a task with how a machine does a task, but in the end they are very different from each other, organic vs hardware and software

Omg, I wasn’t thinking. The surface of the target liquid needs to be lower than the source. I was thinking of a pipe coming in lower than the lake, but that wouldn’t work.

Ok, I’m no civil engineer, but couldn’t you design a siphon system that would only require opening and closing valves to capture the water without any pumping?

Rust’s macro system is safe and hygienic, people have implemented lisps in it. I just did a google search to find an example, so I have no idea how well supported this is, https://github.com/JunSuzukiJapan/macro-lisp

Have you registered these domains? I’ve seen a lot of companies use “internal” domains that they don’t register and then are surprised when names they didn’t register end up resolving unintentionally to something external.

What attitude are you referring to? An engineer wanted to play around and see if they could get something to work. Not only did it work, for one task it worked well, so it probably exceeded their initial goal? I thought that was exactly wha

The census has a broad definition of urban, which is why I also linked the Bloomberg article that is a more articulate piece on what we should define as urban. Even using that, more than 60% of Americans live in urban environments. The ques

True, though based on the statistics around this most people tend to only bike about 5 miles. After that, it’s really only the folks committed to not driving at all.

It’s definitely important to scope where car replacements are most successful. And it’s not rural living. It’s in more dense urban and suburban areas, where most of your needs are within 2 miles, and also that there is decent public transit

As someone who’s adopting bikes for most of my utility needs, food shopping, dropping kids off at school, one thing I can’t agree with is that cars are more convenient . In general, I find cars to be far less convenient. They are annoying

I was thinking of the internal Kernel tasks that might block, where it might be possible to have things happen in parallel, like bringing various hardware components online. See the sibling discussion on 200ms startup times.

Yes, there might be some significant gaps that make kernel development much more difficult. Off the top of my head, the current state of async traits is still being fleshed out, but it’s coming. The async_trait macros rely on boxing, so I c

In theory, it would simplify concurrency primitives in the kernel space, especially on the main thread, which is something I’ve notice is not an area that a lot of kernels explore.

One thing I keep hoping to see in all of these kernels in Rust is an async first kernel. Is there something that makes this particularly difficult or do folks not see the value in it? I know from following along with Phil Oppermann’s OS in
